It was a good close well played game between the Minnesota Vikings and the Los Angeles Rams with both teams going back and fort on the field battling for a win, but one key moment near the end pretty much sealed the deal and the referees are to blame for the mistake.
The Rams were playing at home with the lead at SoFi Stadium but it was a one possession game, as the score was 28-20 with under two minutes left. They’ve just punted the ball to the Vikings and they pinned them inside their 5-yard line.

It was second down for Sam Darnold and company and while he was looking to avoid pressure after dropping back to pass, he was in the endzone when the unfortunate and controversial moment occurred.
Fans outraged by the no-call
Sam Darnold tried to get away but Rams defensive lineman Byron Young ended up pulling the quarterback’s facemask and then the Vikings signal caller went to the grown. Young put his hands on his head regretting his actions.
However, the referring, who has positioned in a very good spot just behind the play, did not throw a flag and the rest of the crew did not do it also. Darnold was on the grown furious because of the no-call that ended up in two points for Los Angeles.
The Vikings couldn’t get the ball back and the Rams sealed the game for a 30-20 win, but everyone in the Vikings bench were going crazy over the play and fans all over social media were supporting them.
